And here's my layout to share that was used in the Carta Bella CHA booth using the new Well Traveled line. This line is even nicer and richer in person. As soon as I got it, I had this photo in mind. It is a real steam engine at Dollywood. Emma loves trains and had her sights on doing this first when we arrived at the park. But what she had never experienced is how loud a real steam engine is!
We loved the ride (the whistle really was super loud), she screamed and cried the entire time...one of those "are we having fun yet moments." Carta Bella has washi tape now! The strips of trains are not from paper but one design of a 3 set of new washi tape with this line.
I think this line was a huge hit at CHA. I would not normally scrap with these colors, but I have since made a couple more projects with it. Very easy to work with.
And speaking of other projects, I had started this mini album in case I needed another project, but never filled it with photos...so I'm giving this away! It is small...about 6x6 approximately. The ribbon closure is sewn on.
And the pages are all stitched with different journaling cards inside.
Here's what you need to do:
1) Leave me a comment to enter to win a current collection of your choice from Carta Bella.
2) If you want to win the mini album I made...and I'm giving away a full set of the new washi tape and a 6x6 pad from Well traveled!! Just leave me a separate comment as to what you would use the mini album and/or 6x6 pad and washi for.
GOOD LUCK!!!
What a super fun layout. Love the colors and the details/textures. How cool.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Terri_ski at yahoo dot com
I love how you used this collection...I love all the details and design elements!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the mini album - I would give it to a dear friend who traveled allot with her late father. This would be perfect for her to scrapbook the memories. Thanks again !!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this! The collection is beautiful and your project is yummy!
ReplyDeleteAwesome collection and great projects using it!
ReplyDeleteLove the little mini album, I would use it for scenic train ride photos. Thanks for the chance!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this line, and your LO is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe mini album would be perfect for a travel summary... A list of all your vacations. It is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing!!! I had NO idea that they were releasing tape to match their collections! Wow what I have learned just on my first blog hop stop!
ReplyDeleteThe mini album...would be PERFECT for our train ride on the colorado river! The girls LOVED the trip and I took so many photos. This would be perfection...if I don't win it, I will have to just replicate this myself by saving your pictures!
ReplyDeleteWow! Gorgeous layout!!I love that train photo!
ReplyDeleteI love the mini, thank you so much for a chance to win it! I would use it and the 6x6 pad for photos from a day trip I am taking with my husband this summer!And who doesn't need more washi?
ReplyDeleteOh WOW- I love this. It totally inspires me to try using a different color scheme than I usually do. (Which can be a challenge, but it's always a surprise!)
ReplyDelete(and I would totally use the mini album + the paper and washi for documenting part of our Disney adventures!)
ReplyDeleteLove the projects! The mini album is such a cool idea.
ReplyDeleteSweet! I loved this collection since I saw the sneaks before CHA, and your is drop dead gorgeous. I would use the awesome giveaway to document our annal summer cottage trip or the much expected family reunion trip to Disney!
ReplyDeleteAwesome L/O!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the bonus chance to win your adorable mini album plus the paper pack and washi tape! If I won, I would give the album to my brother as he travels a lot. The papers and tapes would definitely be put to good crafting use :)
ReplyDeleteWow! You have done a wonderful job on both your layout and album!! I love how the reds just pop out! I didn't realize that Carta Bella now has washi tape. I have never used washi tape. I might have to give that a try! Awesome job!
ReplyDeleteHey Patricia, thanks for the opportunity to win the sweet album that you created and the washi tape. I would probably use it for a vacation that we have taken. Your comment about the steam engine's whistle was cute. When my son was about 2 years old, he loved trains. We were on vacation in Colorado and had traveled up by car to a tourist town. You could have taken the train which we considered taking, but we weren't sure how the kids would do being stuck on the train for several hours (a two year and five year old). So we drove and ended up getting to see a train about ready to take off. We were right next to the engine so when the train whistle blew, my son screamed and started to cry! WOW, that whistle was LOUD! Glad we ended up driving :o) .
ReplyDeleteI love the train page. I have some awesome train pics that would go so well with this line. Totally sparked an idea! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLove the chance for the bonus win. Your album is incredibly beautiful. I have a friend that just got back from an overseas mission trip that I think I could make this album work for her and surprise her. I love the colors of the washi tape. This red is such a great shade. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your work and the chance to win. Your pages are great and I love that train washi
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the colors of this collection, kind of an early Americana look that goes perfectly with the old locomotive.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have either the mini album or the pad and tape. I would use these for documenting some of the historic trips my boy scouts have made over the years.
ReplyDeletegreat projects
ReplyDeletetfs
OMG!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the extra chance at some goodies---
what a great mini---I could use it for our trip to chattanooga, TN!
and the papers and washi could be used on anything---I especially like that size for cards!
Ha! We had the exact same experience with our not quite 2 at the time, son. Daddy and him got off the train at the first stop!
ReplyDeleteI love this collection!
I've never seen a working real steam engine. Or heard. Now I should include it in my To do list=)
ReplyDeleteYour mini looks so cute! It's perfect for short trips, I'm sure. I love to make photos when I travel, but I end up with so many of them, that I have now several To-do-travel-albums.
ReplyDeleteAnd the washi - does it have trains? oh
Wow!! very nice :)
ReplyDeleteThe papers work so well with the train...great layout.
